Hello All,
In one of the ASP .Net site we are currently working we have a bulk load of SSRS reports. We have forms authentication for the site and reports have already been created and deployed in the report server. We are having so many problems with authentication when we set the report viewer control to access the server report.
I just want to know what are the advantages or disadvantages of using Local report vs Server Report
Thanks,
Raja
1- client report don't need to report server for rendering. (advantage)
2- you must make a server report by creating a report server project in BIDS but client reports must create in VS.
3- server reports use stored procedure or text script as data provider but client reports use dataset or xml datasource for this.
4- server reports use report server for rendering of the report but for client reports this work done at report viewer control.
5- client reports don't need SSRS installation but server reports need that.
6- for working with server reports you must deploy reports but in client reports you don't need this work.
7- for enterprise projects, it is better that you use server report but in other projects client reports are better.
I want the straight forward answer....which one is the best and why?.
1) Reporting Server processes and renders the report so its performance is good..becuase we are splitting the process load...is this correct? (Report Server and application Server).
2) Local Reports are good if we want ,manual authentication techniques?...
Performance point which one is the best? Security point which one is the best?
I think for both server reports is the best...? only if the reports are viewed internal to the network..is this correct?.....
